Floral & Textured

Château Haut-Grelot is located near the Gironde Estuaire, north of the town of Bordeaux. The Bonneau family has been making wine and taking great care of their vineyards since its establishment in 1920.

This orange wine is made with Sauvignon Gris coming from the Côteaux de Gendron. The grapes macerate on the skins for six months in diamond-shaped tanks.

Boir Pour Voir shows aromas of rose petal, citrus, and orange zest with aniseed notes on the nose. On the palate, it is fresh and round, with a slight bitterness that creates a good length and texture. It has hints of white peach and citrus on the palate.

Ideal as an aperitif, and goes perfectly with hard cheeses and boiled artichokes with garlicky butter.

Only 1500 bottles made.

About the Winery

Château Haut-Grelot

Château Haut Grelot is located in Saint Ciers Sur Gironde, approximately 50 kms north of Bordeaux, on the right bank of the Gironde Estuary. It was established by the Bonneau family in 1922 and now run but the 4th Generation. Today Château Haut-Grelot comprises 58 hectares of vineyards and is run by Céline and Julien, who was recently awarded the title 'Best Young Talent' in Bordeaux.

The vineyards are made up of sandy-gravel on the hillsides bordering the Gironde Estuary and sand-clay-silt on the hillsides further inland. Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux benefits from an ideal microclimate where there is a high level of sunshine and enough rain to guarantee the perfect environment for grape production. As a result the reds are fruity and concentrated and the whites are fresh, vibrant and delicate.
